We are customer-focused and strive to become market leaders in ship propulsion by delivering high-quality service that fosters customer loyalty.

You will take on overarching technical responsibility for the delivery of hydraulics for customer-specific propeller projects. This involves creating hydraulic and wiring schematics based on customer specifications, which are then sent to suppliers for manufacturing. You will work in close collaboration with the project team and other internal stakeholders, together with contact with suppliers and representing the company in technical customer matters. In the long term, the role may involve traveling to participate in product tests at suppliers and meetings with customers, which you should be open to and find exciting.
